Korean cuisine (hansik) is built around balance — fermented sides (banchan), a steaming bowl of rice, and a main dish that changes with the season. Meals are served all at once rather than in courses, and sharing dishes at the table is the norm. The depth of flavor comes from slow-fermented pastes like doenjang (soybean) and gochujang (chili), which form the backbone of soups, stews, and marinades across the country.
Jung-gu sits at the geographic and commercial center of Seoul, encompassing Myeongdong (K-beauty and street food), Namdaemun Market, and the financial district. The food here spans the full range — from tourist-facing street stalls in Myeongdong to understated lunch joints serving office workers, and traditional Korean restaurants that have operated for decades without needing to advertise.

It’s one of many Korean style raw beef restaurants along Gwangjang public market. They are all more or less the same so I don’t know if this place stands out from other places, but I still enjoyed the food. The food is not for the faint of heart, so prepare to be adventurous. They are famous for the raw beef and raw octopus dish which is slimy, savoury, and chewy. They are perfect with a shot of soju or rice wine. Give them a try if you want to try something you’ve never had before!
My first dinner in Korea. New experience for me. 💪 Fresh meat with quick served. 60$ in total for me and my gf.
